NEW YORK, Sept. 21, 2015 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) is now offering site license subscriptions for National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards. A comprehensive collection of over 1,300 of NFPA's current and historical standards, which are utilized to reduce the worldwide burden of fire and other hazards on quality of life, is now available.

NFPA is an ANSI organizational member and audited designator that provides scientifically based consensus codes and standards, research, training, and education.

A site license provides convenient and cost-effective, multi-user access to specific standards, and subscribers can create a customized site license collection by selecting standards from a wide range of different standards developers.

Licensed collections can be referenced from anywhere in the world, with multi-year agreements for additional cost savings. Revisions of licensed standards are automatically provided as they are updated.

Interested organizations should request a site license proposal online to see how much time and money they can save with an ANSI site license.
